Rail disruption

Rail improvement works at London Waterloo from 5 - 28 August 2017

Rail improvement works at London Waterloo will impact passengers coming to or from Gatwick using Wimbledon, Clapham Junction and Vauxhall stations. There will be a significant reduction to South West Trains services and Southern and Thameslink services will be busier as a result.

National Rail are strongly advising that passengers avoid interchanging at Clapham Junction and leave extra time for your journey.

Disruption to Southern overnight rail services to and from Gatwick

Southern Rail is making a key change to overnight services from London Victoria to Gatwick and Brighton to enable Network Rail to carry out essential engineering works.

Please plan your journey in advance and allow plenty of extra time to get to the airport.
